They home made chips are awesome. Never had a meal I did not enjoy. Maybe not the most authentic Mexican food but one one of the best American/Mexican restaurants I have ever eaten at. The food is just as good as some supposed authentic Mexican restaurants I have eaten at.

This place is average at best. The food was VERY American... NOT very Mexican, in my opinion.

I will admit that I had a good Long Island Iced Tea while we were waiting for a table and got seated fairly quickly for a busy Saturday night... but I was there for Mexican food and felt I did not get it there.

I live out by Jordan Creek, so I go here pretty often. I'd say the service is usually pretty good, but it seems like there's pretty high turn over although everyone is typically friendly.

The salsa and chips are excellent. You could make a meal out of those if you want.

I always get the Monterey Chicken Ranch Fajita. I wish I could try other dishes, but this one is so good, I don't want anything else!

Cold, tasteless food and poor service.
For a bean lover the beans were uneatable.

If you like authentic/american mexican, this is a great place. I used to work in a Mexican restaurant, so I'm pretty picky, but their salsa and fajitas are up there with the best of them!
